Shame that those coming from the east don't get such a good deal, Polegate being about the same distance from the Amex as Worthing.

Used the triain about fifteen times last season from Portslade and never had my ticket checked once. Sometimes no one there to buy one from anyway. Ended up not bothering.

So, you only buy a ticket because you might get caught, rather than paying for a service you have used ?

Very true. When those boundaries were drawn up, they were relative to Withdean. Ideally they need dragging over to the East a bit to make it balanced & fairer. As the scheme worked last year, it was cheaper to buy a return ticket from Eastbourne to Falmer rather than a return to Lewes then use a voucher from there.

I've no problem making the travel voucher compulsory even though I will be out of pocket a bit, but as mentioned, the boundaries could do with some tinkering.
